Beyond thrilled to have received a 2022 Jersey City Literary Arts Award! I moved to Jersey City in 2014 when I began my MFA in Creative Writing and it’s been such a rich community particularly with the arts venues and Jersey City Writers to grow as an artist- thank you, Jersey City Arts Council and congrats to all the other awardees!

Such a treat to see Carmen Vegas’ eclectic art, discover this music space, read poems and stories, listen to piano and guitar and impromptu stand up. A fun, organic night.


A nice surprise to receive an award at the ALFA Art Gallery Awards for the photograph “Mystery.”
